Currently on Mac 10.12.5 and Firefox 57.0.4.

Mac's default dictionary lookup existed on Quantum before this current version and now it doesn't appear with a right click. It is there if a perform a force-click, however, how do I bring it back to the context menu so I do not have to use the laptop's trackpad?

If you used the Dictionary Lookup Extension then this Legacy extension no longer works in Firefox 57+.

Anything here?

I am not using an extension for this. This feature was supported by default on Mac. I will perform the debugging steps outlined, however, what I would like to know is if other people are also seeing this problem.

No, nothing on it. Suggest google or mac forum.

Just to let everyone on here know, I have tried installing a brand new Firefox on another Mac and have faced the same problem, meaning there is an issue with Firefox. I will try to get a bug report going. Thanks.
